Google is your friend. You can buy it in any chemist. It's essentially 80-90% alcohol so will draw out all the liquid. I didn't ask for you to tell me what you can use the phone for without data, i simply said bin it or keep it for parts. I'll remember to not try help again.

Simple. Dip the motherboard of the water damaged phone in surgical BEP/spirit for about 10 seconds, just the motherboard remember. Dry it out in an airing cupboard for an hour or apply heat to it from a hairdryer or hot air blower for around 30 seconds or so. Use your own judgement to test...

Maybe it's a setting in your carrier settings? Do you have an app placed on your phone by your SIM card?

Just delete the data / cache in settings for your Messages app

I strongly recommend this thread is closed.

Hey folks I have a wee question After having owned this phone for around a year I can say it's been for the most part an absolute joy. I do need to ask however.. To the best of my knowledge this uses the same processor as the S5. I may stand corrected so please correct me if needed. So my...

"upgradation"

That's the way things are done in android now and has been for quite some time mate, probably just need to get used to it. I'm sure there'll be some way to get round it but I don't know what that would be though.

Possibly but more likely to be caused by the kernel than anything else as that generally controls the charging speeds and so on

I'll research for you mate!

The supersu app doesn't delete the recovery on your phone so something had to have gone wrong. Either way the best bet for you I would imagine anyway would be to follow a guide to install recovery - it's been that long since I had to do it I can't be of much help but I'm willing to look into the...

Just going to ask a hopefully obvious question that I know doesn't help but I'm intrigued... Why didn't you just unroot using the supersu app?

I've noticed now 3 times in a lineage based OS and lineage itself that the charging speeds are literally non-existent at times. Literally plugged in and woke up with the same percentage. Most of the time is great but there's been a few occasions this has happened and a restart fixes it Strange huh

Yeah, follow the opening post..

Where do you live Alex?

If your screen is burnt they don't need to change the motherboard as well, so what they're essentially saying is they'll do what apple does and instead of fixing the phone they'll give you a replacement (at a cost to you). The choice you need to make is whether to keep your warranty or your...

I own a phone repair company and I'm happy to put you in touch with our suppliers but I need to know a few things... Price range you're looking at paying (roughly) and where do you live?

and a really weird cover thing for the port on the bottom which was less than ideal. If they could work out a way to make a retractable one that automatically detects when a cable is going to be plugged in that also automatically replaces itself immediately after unplugging... that would be ideal

This may have already been answered but from a LEGALITY point of view, any and all carriers throughout the world (and you'd be surprised how little of them there actually are due to affiliations and so on) can easily blacklist the IMEI of the phone. The IMEI is specific to the actual handset...

Only thing you can do is swap them over and try. If they physically fit (have the same push on connector) then they'll be fine but to my knowledge they're the same

Yep definitely. The tears in the image are caused by disruption to the lenses forcing essentially too much light on one area. Think of it like when you get that slight vision loss when a camera flashes in your eyes. That's burnt onto the back of your eye and fixes itself quickly. Issue with...

100% hardware bro, sorry to be the one to tell you

Hey Folks, As the title suggests - I did read somewhere that Samsung has removed support in some form or other but can't for the life of me recall where. I have searched and unfortunately can't come across any answers - a few questions similar but no answers. So what I'm trying to find out is...

Please do buddy. If it still doesn't work let me know.

Genuinely sounds like an issue with the battery. You might think otherwise, but get a new battery and give it a try. A dodgy or dying battery can cause insane amounts of issues, from SD card to display issues primarily because it's throwing out strange voltage readings. Give it a try, if it...

Hey folks, Anyone got any advice on the above? I'm swaying toward to the Nexus, but the Talk has a bigger screen and a few specs that are better in general. Both are gonna be used for the same thing, general business use. Reason for the confusion is someone is selling both, same price for...

It's the screen pinning bug something people (and Dev included) are aware of? ---------- Post added at 12:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 PM ---------- Works fine this end!

If you can tell me what it is and how to obtain it I'll upload mine...

No huge rush bro, just would make a degree of sense that the stock ROMS use more data for the videos than CM, given the huge difference in quality but I may stand corrected. Dev?

Out of interest, what model of phone and ROM are you using? Just thinking if this has anything to do with it? I'm using an LG G3 and didn't have this issue using a CM build, but when I switched back to a stock based build that's when it appeared. The camera is significantly better on stock so I...

Hey there, Don't know if this is a common issue, but I can only record roughly 5 second videos. I do need to say they are significantly better quality with snapprefs installed, extremely smooth framerate and I would actually say on par with our Apple-wielding counter parts however is there a...

Hey folks! I've had a read through as many posts as possible to find an answer to this but I can't seem to find anything - whether I search or not - so I'm hoping someone will know what's happening and if there is a fix. If no fix exists, that's fine - it can easily be dealt with. The issue...

I've just compared that to mine, and the bezels too look slightly thicker on that but that could just be due to the paint on the glass. I wouldn't worry about it

If it's unlocked it will remain unlocked.

I've done exactly this - S5 to G3 and never gonna look back. To me, apart from the charging speed, literally everything is better. Everything.
